10.0

Absolutely EVERYTHING!!! I honestly felt so connected, comfortable and relaxed, so did my 2 sisters who stayed for the weekend as well. The space was INCREDIBLY welcoming and whimsical. The bonus brekky basket was a thoughtful a.d sweet surprise and very much appreciated. I honestly will be back. Thank you.

My only little bit of feed back is maybe a bit of lighting on the signage, I did get a little lost coming in at dark but I did see the lovely Meg popping out with a light and I appreciated that alot

We had a wonderful stay at Kiwarrak Country Retreat. Our family stayed in the Arbour Two-Bedroom Cottage and the Bower Studio, both of which were very clean, comfortable, and cosy. The surrounding gardens and lake create a peaceful and relaxing environment. Our granddaughter especially loved exploring the grounds with the map provided, discovering everything from the Fairy Den and the beehive to spotting the resident bowerbird and his collection of blue treasures. We would happily recommend Kiwarrak Country Retreat and hope to return again in the future.

Delighted & refreshed by bird song, bush surrounds, pond views & caring hosts.

9.0

Tasteful, peaceful, comfortable, spacious, quiet…a perfectly relaxing way to end a month of travelling. Meg & Tara are wonderfully accommodating hosts & they prepare a mean continental breakfast! ❤️

The road to the property needs the local council to grade it as it’s a rough trip in. The dishwasher had a conniption which resulted in some late night floor mopping.
